BDK is the one who dismisses any report critical of trump or MAQA that uses an unnamed source. Pointing out the hypocrisy of MAQA going nuts over shirley's use of an unnamed source is completely within reason. MAQA has 2 standards - if it's critical of the left then unnamed sources are credible and rumors & innuendo are accepted as fact but if it's critical of trump or MAQA then unnamed sources are not credible and video and a confession(s) are required as proof.

shirley has demonstrated that he doesn't follow the same ethical guidelines as a journalist. He paid Latino day laborers to hold signs for a video alleging that illegal immigrants supported biden. That was extremely biased toward the right and is absolutely NOT independent.

A lot of what shirley reported had already been reported by the MSM (Star Tribune). He sensationalized it and MAQA lapped it up like he was breaking a new story.

The other hypocrisy that needs to be pointed out is MAQQ pointedly ignoring the graft and corruption happening in the trump regime while crowing about this.

None of this excuses what happened. The perpetrators should be investigated and charged. Systems need to be put in place to prevent this in the future.
Just when you thought you couldn’t get any dumber, you post something even dumber

JFC you can see David in the video

That’s a lot different than posting a story with ““ unnamed source
I'm just trying to keep up with you and the other MAQA yahoos when it comes to getting dumber and posting dumb sh!t. I know, it's an impossible goal but I keep trying.

What is David's last name? What is his background? What gives him credibility other than he's telling you what you want to hear? MAQA yahoos always wanting to have their cake and eat it too when it comes to known sources and evidence of wrongdoing.

You conveniently skipped over the following:
  • shirley has demonstrated that he doesn't follow the same ethical guidelines as a journalist. He paid Latino day laborers to hold signs for a video alleging that illegal immigrants supported biden. That was extremely biased toward the right and is absolutely NOT independent.
  • A lot of what shirley reported had already been reported by the MSM (Star Tribune). He sensationalized it and MAQA lapped it up like he was breaking a new story.
  • The other hypocrisy that needs to be pointed out is MAQA pointedly ignoring the graft and corruption happening in the trump regime while crowing about this.
As I said, none of this excuses what happened. The perpetrators should be investigated and charged. Systems need to be put in place to prevent this in the future. Will you say the same thing about the graft and corruption with the trump regime or will you stick your head in the sand and pretend it isn't happening because tDS, blah, blah, blah?

And attacking an influencer improves their brand. This is all like some shitty, dishonest form of Gonzo journalism. HST is rolling over in his grave.
Times are changing little buddy…. Those journalists that hang around in their cubicles looking at their precious framed degrees are falling behind.

I’ve been telling you for years on here you need to hit the streets
Journalists don’t leave their cubicles? Who knew! :lol:

You seem emotionally distressed over this. Might want to take a time out.

Shirley admits to being independent
Shirley shows no left or right bias in his videos

SBA says it has suspended ‘6,900 Minnesota borrowers’ over suspected fraud

Small Business Administration (SBA) Administrator Kelly Loeffler said Thursday that her agency has suspended “6,900 Minnesota borrowers” over suspected fraudulent activity regarding pandemic-era lending programs.
Loeffler said the SBA over the past week reviewed “thousands” of potentially “fraudulent” Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) payouts that were approved in Minnesota…..

Where’s the evidence that there is $9 billion in fraud?

You who dismisses any allegation by a source you disagree with want others to just believe that the $9 billion figure is accurate and not typical trump regime bullsh!t/hyperbole?

Been well publicized that Fed prosecutors stated that was their estimate. You treat as gospel any DOJ allegations against Trump and/or MAGA, but dismisses any allegation against members of the left.

The Star Tribune tried to deny it was more than 1 billion by denying billionS plural.

The fraud was recognized by all of the lefties I know and should be dealt with honestly, without embellishing the story, or blaming it on race.

Nick Shirley contributed nothing positive to situation.

There are news reports of it going back to 2018. Shirley used lies to make money. I agree on race. Tell that to racists like Shirley, Trump, and Vance.

Then why is the trump regime pursuing fraud charges against black Somalians while pardoning white people who have been convicted of trillions of dollars in fraud?

There might only be 1 race involved to you but trump and in his circle of cronies aren't playing by the same rules - Christian whites get a pass, POC and/or different religions will be punished. Please move along, there's no racism/bias here.

I know it's not trillions but I want to see if MAQA yahoos get their panties in a bunch over my hyperbole while lapping up the trump regime's hyperbole.

Blaming it on country of origin, as it should be, isn‘t racist.

Billions in fraud. 81% on some form of welfare (it should be zero because of the public charge rule to receive greencards). Per capita the biggest drain on this country of any immigrant group (including fellow immigrants from other African countries who have a fraction of the welfare and scam rates). They never should have been brought here. Their country being a war torn backwards shithole isn‘t an excuse.

They probably went from the Quality Learing Center on to trump University. Equally rigorous academic institutions. Both intended to advance their students not to grift money from parents/students. :D

I agree!

Get rid of the fraud with Somali daycares and in the trump regime. No more pardons/commutations for fraudsters just because they're Christian whites and probably made a "contribution" to help grease the skids which is just another kind of fraud the trump regime is engaging in.

Investigate and prosecute the criminals who engage in this fraud.
